Valiant Entertainment has tapped Magdalene Visaggio and Nick Robles for a new Doctor Mirage series that is scheduled to launch in August 2019.
How do you solve the case of your own death? Paranormal detective Doctor Shan Fong Mirage had the ability to see and talk to the dead. Except the dead have gone silent, their spirits mysteriously vanished, including Hwen, her deceased husband. Now, Doctor Mirage must face the most challenging question of her life: Is she dead but doesn’t know it?
“We’re going to visit the parts of Hell even the devil is afraid to go,” teased Mags. “I get to tell a story about someone in her own personal year zero, rebuilding her life from its literal wreckage. I’ve been dying to write Doctor Mirage, she’s a really fascinating character, existing on the edges of a vast and undefined magical universe.”
Nick is having a blast playing around in Valiant’s supernatural sandbox. “The genre offers a lot of chances to play with texture, patterns, and things that depict magical and ethereal subjects in fun ways.” Fans can expect some spellbinding pencils from the artist. “It really opens the door to crawl out of the box of rules and forge some interesting visuals. I’m having a lot of fun with ways to push and pull this wonderfully weird comic that we’re creating.”
Look for Doctor Mirage #1 in August.
